i think he could do with losing a few hundred grams, unless he's obviously well toned

Fully grown males should be on a large mouse ever 10 - 14 days with plenty of handling. Could do with losing a little really maybe just try and extend the length of time between feeds.

At what age is a corn an adult? Kellog is 4 and a half years old, about 4 foot long and approx 670g. He is on one large mouse a week, which he went up to about 4 feeds ago. He certainly doesnt look or feel as though he is carrying any extra weight.
